Securing the C/Port APR
Use one of the following methods to seeure the C/Port
APR:
• A padloek alone or a padloek and looped seeurity
eable with the padloek hole (see Figure 1-1) on the
C/Port APR.
A padloek alone bloeks the ejeet lever and makes
it diffieult to detaeh the eomputer from the C/Port
APR.
A seeurity eable looped around a stationary objeet
and used in eonjunetion with the padloek ean help
prevent the unauthorized movement of the eomputer
and the C/Port APR.
• A eommereially available antitheft deviee attaehed
to the seeurity loek slot (see Figure 1-1) on the
C/Port APR. Antitheft deviees usually inelude a seg­
ment of metal-stranded eable with an attaehed
loeking deviee and assoeiated key. Complete instrue-
tions for installing this kind of antitheft deviee are
ineluded with the deviee.
• Bolt the doeking eontrol base (with the C/Port APR
eonneeted) to the desk or work surfaee using the fol­
lowing proeedure:
1. Drill two holes in the desk or work surface.
The centers of the holes should be
6 inches apart.
2. Save all files, close and exit all application
programs, and exit the operating system.
Turn off the computer.
3. Remove the monitor stand if one is attached
to the docking control base.
4. Undock the computer.
